This Natter

Day: Friday 21 February 2025

Time: 1pm AEST (Qld time)

Topic: Right People, Right Jobs, Right Time: An AI Skills Recognition Service to Grow RPL

In this session, Yasmin King, Director and Co-Founder and Margo Griffith, Principal Skills Consultant of SkillsAware, an AI-powered skills recognition service, will introduce a productivity tool that makes RPL more accessible and grows the market for recognition. By utilising AI in this way the heavy lifting of mapping is automated, so you can focus on your expertise, rather than process.

Margo will present a demonstration of the service and speak about its impacts on RPL, employee skills visibility, skills gaps, employee recognition and more. They will discuss how AI contributes to productivity - doing things better, smarter and quicker.

While AI is not a panacea to everything, it supports a change to the culture of skills based hiring and resourcing.

Skills = measurable tasks + context. AI has enabled us to use the granularity inherent in the Australian Training Packages for good.

These reforms tackle systemic issues, such as completion rates, poor implementation of RPL, better skills recognition on migration and enable the right people, right jobs, right time.

The session is scheduled to run for approximately 30 minutes with 15 minutes audience Q&A


As a Community Matters discussion, this is a special event for Education Matters and RPL Matters members.
